When the images disappeared from his vision, Zero noticed that the energy aura of the runes on the thirteen stone tablets in front of him had dimmed by quite a bit. Regardless of his physical strength or energy, he had recovered to his peak condition. Moreover, he could feel that there was something extra in his body. However, that feeling was very vague, and Zero could not be sure what it was. The only thing that could be certain was that something must have happened to him while he was being dragged into the illusion by the strange symbols on the stone tablet.
What Zero didn"t know was that when he was dragged into the universe, the 13 stone tablets were constantly emitting a huge amount of energy. The frequency of its eruption was several times or even ten times higher than before. It was as if an invisible hand was pulling all the energy into his body, and after a series of cycles, it returned to the stone tablet. The cycle repeated until the zero sense of thought left the illusion world. Only then did the energy eruption stop.
The symbols were arranged in a certain order, naturally gathering the energy of the planets and even the universe. Zero could not understand. These thirteen monoliths were actually the Star Pattern Cardinal Formation, a product of another civilization. The Star Beast were engraved in the True King"s mind through the pitch black throne. When the True King began to construct their own kingdom, they would build this kind of Star Pattern Arch according to the blueprints.
The Star Pattern Arch could gather the energy of the planets and the universe. The energy gathered by the seven arches was the first delicacy the Star Beast would have when she was emanc.i.p.ated. After that, the Star Beast would start to devour the energy in the earth"s core.
But perhaps the Star Beast did not expect that the energy essence that Lilith"s Star Pattern Diagram had gathered would enter into Zero"s body through some mysterious connection. It replenished the energy and stamina that had been lost, as well as the body that had been transformed to a certain extent. While entering and exiting the room, he also left a bit of the essence of the planet in Zero"s body.
That little bit of essence was called the star core, it was the planet"s memory and inheritance. In this mysterious way, the planet had left seeds to fight against the Star Beast. As for zero, it was the soil where the seeds had taken root and sprouted.
Right in the middle of that golden right eye"s pupils, a little blue flame quietly appeared. The blue flame quickly formed a triangular symbol and sank into the depths of his zero pupils, waiting for the opportunity to awaken.
By the time he left the temple, the Star Pattern Divide was still there. However, the energy stored inside it had already been reduced by seven to eight times and would slowly fade with the pa.s.sage of time.
Raising his head to look at the sky, although normally it was not dazzling, in the end, it was the light that made Zero feel loathing. At that moment, it seemed to have become much gentler. That light contained a large amount of information. Zero had a feeling that the information was closely related to the planet"s energy. However, he did not have the time to a.n.a.lyze them right now. He turned around and looked at the square apex column s behind the G.o.dly temple. His figure suddenly flickered, and when he reappeared, he was already on the street behind the G.o.dly temple.
This street was straight to the square apex column!
Agatha was advancing with great difficulty.
The environment she was in right now was not the wide but perilous surface, but the narrow but relatively safe underground pa.s.sage.
From the first old man"s mouth, Agatha found out where Jodtenheim came from. That old man, the people who were kept in the life support warehouse, and the food that had already been eaten, were in fact the creators of Jodtenheim.
The old man called Peter told Agatha that he and the others were originally citizens of a few nearby towns. I remember a hot afternoon when a woman suddenly appeared in their town. All the men in the town had tried to touch her because of her beauty, but all the men who dared to touch her had been brutally killed.
After stunning the residents, the woman magically brought out a few gold bricks and asked the residents to work for her.
One had to know that no matter what era it was, gold was a hard currency. At that time, the townspeople were blinded by the gold, so they naturally didn"t care where it came from, and agreed to become women"s workers. However, there were so many women that it took almost 10,000 people in several towns to meet her basic requirements.
At that time, everyone was guessing why would this woman gather so many people? But no matter how imaginative they may be, they never thought that women needed so many workers. It turned out to be to build a city.
A city that could be called a kingdom!
They were all shocked when the woman handed over the blueprint to several of the people in charge. Old Peter was one of the people in charge of the project at that time, and at the request of the woman, they started to clear the forest. The close to ten thousand square kilometers of trees were razed to the ground, they were burned down, and the empty ground was the cornerstone of Jodtenheim.
Just like this, Jodtenheim began to have a prototype in the hands of these workers. As he spent time with women, people began to discover how scary she was. She could actually speak the human language, and everything was the same as a human"s. But she did not need to sleep, nor did she look like a capable person. She looked more like a living corpse.
A living corpse that could speak human language.
The rumor began to spread among the workers, and at first everyone was skeptical. Until one day, the woman brought back an army. Everyone finally believed that the army was actually made up of all the living corpse.
As a result, the workers wanted to escape. A living corpse was actually building its own city, what could be more terrifying than this? However, the women"s living corpse army quickly suppressed the workers, and all the workers who wanted to escape became food for the living corpse. Thus, they had no choice but to obediently stay back to work. However, they didn"t expect that even if they didn"t run away, they would still be living corpse"s food, the difference being that sooner or later, it would just be a matter of time.
Under the Old Peter"s activation, a secret operation was carried out at the same time as Jodtenheim"s construction. According to the kingdom"s blueprint that the woman gave him, Jodtenheim"s underground base needed to design a special pipeline that allowed him to travel with energy, which gave the workers a chance. While they were building the energy pipeline, they also dug out many underground pa.s.sages that connected to other parts of the foundation, so that when the time came, they could help Jodtenheim escape this terrifying living corpse city from any corner.
It was a pity that no one had the time to use the underground tunnel. On the eve of Jodtenheim"s completion, a majority of the people suddenly fell into a deep sleep. These workers who had pa.s.sed out were placed into preordered life support boxes by the living corpse s, while a small portion of them continued working until the kingdom was completed.
From his mouth, Agatha knew that Jodtenheim had built the Old Peter back then. The majority of these workers had become the first grains for the living corpse, while the Old Peter and a small portion of them had somehow fainted. It was only at this time that Agatha woke them up.
From the electronic records in the life support box, Old Peter had been asleep for five years. They did not know that he had been saved as food. After the Old Peter informed him of the existence of the underground pa.s.sage, Agatha decided to use the underground pa.s.sage to head to the square apex column. After asking the engineering manager"s Old Peter about the specific route to the square apex column, she also told him to wake up the workers who were asleep at the same time. Then, she would also use the underground pa.s.sage to quickly leave Jodtenheim.
This was the reason why Agatha would appear in the underground tunnel. In order to not be discovered, the tunnel was so narrow that only one person could pa.s.s through. As a result, in front of Agatha"s eyes, it seemed like a road that would never end.
On this road, Agatha was not lonely at all, because she suddenly heard light sounds coming from the darkness behind her.
It was as if something had crawled over with him!
